has rmro than lts sharE of problems and ts v~ry uniquc in dtfferent wAys; thAt the
conflguration is one of the problems~ but the main ~roblem Is that the nroperty la
landlocked and there is no access for eny purpose other thAn one sln~le-femily
residonce. tle stated the (1ran~ County F1c~ud Cont~ol Dtstrict owns the property
frontAge and the access is not wlde enough for anythtnc~ morP tht~n one untt and they
have b~en succ~ssful in negotiating wtth thc Flc~ocf Controi Oistrict for access, nnd
the ftnA) de~islan is wheth~r or nat th~ can~) should be covered. Ho stated other

a very IArhe threr,-story a~rtmcrcial offtce com~tex~ ~nd thr propertY dlrectly to the

a rea.
Mr. tielle stattd the request to Increase density is hecause much of the prn.perty
cannot be deve loped because the f 1c~d channe 1 goes through i t~+nd that they cannet
butld ove~ the chann~!. Ile stAted the~e has been sonr dTscusslon abaut coverlnq the
chennel but the~e Is also a possihility that the floaci channel could he incre~+sed in
wldth (n the future. H~e stated they have taken whet they feel to be a logica) tourse
of action and would be spending a larc~e amc,unt of money on landscantng wtth mature
trees and shrubbery wlth parking alona the flood chann~l whtch corrnletely hides it
from the vlew of thosc entering thc project.
Mr. Be) le stated t f they us~d any other type ck~ t g~ ~ many of the ur~i ts wou) d not have
the view of the golf course end he felt th~t would be a bad decisfan ~n b~half of the
people living there. F1e stated aithough the open spacr. ls not per cade requirements.
it is 100$ usable. He presented a landsca~tng plan and nc~ted the ~ntire area becomes

the condomtnlum code was chAnged and listen~d te a let of developers and reaitars sey
thet tf the code wes chenged~ the,~ would not be requesttng these vrrt~nc~es; and that
there ls rx~ opp~sitlon to tf,ts proJect because of the ICCation wlth no one llvin~
next door. She atated she Is earr~teining hecause the City Councll seid when the ccxle
w~s chengad, that they would not b~ having these p~aJ~cts comtng ln with n lot of
waivers and they would not grant ~ny density bonuset; and th~t the last ttrr~ she came
dvwn, the request was small (72) and tt was arproved and that thts is e blgger
~equest (382). ShQ steted she hasn't rcvtewed the ~Isns and the new plans arere not
avalleble; snd thet thG only differencc she sees on the report Is th~t the q~rages
have bean enclosed.
Mrs. Ray stated the u~ual reeson f~r the watvcrs Is money and the developers say It
was expe~sive to buy the lAnd, etc, and she w~ould s~y~ if the property is too
nxpenslve~ don't bUy (t and then plan to ~ke the extra proftt by getttng more
density from the city because she firmly fQels the clty should enforce the code as lt
wAS changed. She noted they ara requestin~ a w~+iver on the r~creatlon-leisure areA
and referred to thc develope~'s oarrn~nts r~~arding the area that could not be
developed snd esl:ed why that cnuld not be considered for rGCreatlonai-1F;~ire ~rea.
She asked if the zer~ setback referred to the golf courses.
hirs. Ray referred to Item 2f, of the staff r~port pertalninq to hardships and steted
the vartnnce Is to p~event discrtmination ~nd she felt if thls ts aoproved, the next

not there, they could use a different o~nfigurrtton snd avoici hrving to hev~e~ a three-
story structure with park(ng u~derneath; and th~x the economtes c~f 11fe ~re fatts a~d
having to restrict this butldabie aree creetes a herdahtp that must be offaet and the
nnly way they know to do that is to h~ve thts type structu~e which ia very expenstve.

ta permit retail sale~ in eonJunctlon with a furnitu~e warehouse and allowed
20~ of the floor space to be used fbr retali sales.
Jacic 4lhite~ Assistant City Atto rney~ st~ted the veriance does not address
the number of operators and felt it weuld be hard to enforce a vlalation
involving multiple ve~dors. He advised the applicant should come beck in

the exlsting vertance, it wouid be very difficuit t~ teii the operetor he
cauld not h~ve multiple ~endars bec,AU~e the variance o~ly relates to the
squere footage.
